^^Thanks, I think it has grown about 6 inches, maybe more since then. I've been really taking care of it so I think that has really helped.

It looks like you gained at least 4 inches; that's very good.

That's good growth, and it evened out and got considerably thicker at the hem! Congrats! :)

Btw, are you sure you are a 1a? You look to have waves?
I'd say from the last pic you are a 1c

I do have waves from an old perm. My hair is actually really straight.

How much damage did the perm do, besides ends damage? I looks kind of ok. I never had the guts yet to do a perm.

When I had it professionally done, there was no damage. But a home perm gave me dryness and basically damaged my ends. I do plan on getting a wave perm because I really need volume on the top of my hair so I will look for a good hairdresser to have it done.
